Tickets for the October Central Coast Acoustic Songwriter Session, the third and final event for 2023, are now on sale.
Promising to be a great night out, the event will feature live and local original music at The Entrance Lake House, home to the bi-monthly singer/songwriter nights showcasing local upcoming musicians and the stories behind their original songs.
Supported by local community radio station, Coast FM and organised by local musicians, Michelle Murrell and Meagan Jane, the sessions showcase three different songwriters from the Central Coast and surrounding areas in an intimate dinner and show setting.
The October 27 event will feature local songwriters Elisa Kate, Shane Shepherd and Sandy Louise.
Award-winning songstress Elisa Kate says she is inspired by John Mayer and Switchfoot and combines her reflective pop piano style with flavours of indie, folk and country with a captivating voice and bright, stirring, hope-filled melodies.
With four successful albums, tours including America, Thailand, Melbourne and Perth, and support shows with Toni Childs, Mental as Anything, Rice Price & Dragon, Elisa Kate continues to delight audiences weekly in Newcastle, the Hunter Valley and beyond.
Landing success with her relatability and heart, Kate’s latest singles have burst on to the pop scene with Promise Me featured on Kmart and Woolworths radio and Now or Never gaining airplay on Triple J and featuring in the 2023 Paramount Plus Australian movie The Appleton Ladies Potato Race.
Her latest single There Won’t Be a Day shares her best work yet with a warm, inspiring tribute to her uncle that revels in the joy of memories and finds hope in the face of life’s adversities.
Shane Shepherd is a singer-songwriter from the Central Coast who is a high-performance swimming coach by day and turns his creativity to music most nights.
Shepherd’s songwriting is inspired by his travels around Australia where he has immersed himself within local communities and their cultural heritage, enabling him to write powerful lyrics and intriguing stories.
He has released two EPs – Dog Day Afternoon and A Wonderful Life – with his biggest hit so far being Koori Girl which finished in the top 10 of the 2017 Australian National Song Writing Competition and was played nationwide on indigenous radio stations.
Sandy Louise is a Newcastle-based singer-songwriter who has released three full-length albums and six singles, all recorded and produced by Bill Chambers.
Her next album Live for Today is expected to be released in November.
